CREED Greatest Indust rial Parade Ever Seen Here Handsome Floats and Many Unique Designs in the Line. Several Reminiscent of the Pioneer Days of the Town. There was variety sufficient In the grand civic, military, Industrial and Bremen's parade, which moved over the principal streets of Reynoldsvllle, starting at 2:30 this afternoon. Tbe features ran from the ridiculous to tbe sublime, from crudity to productions of art, but all was In keeping with the wldenees of scope for which Old Home Week Is arranged. The thousands of spectators who lined the thoroughfares were highly enter tained by the magnificent blaze of mov ing colore, the harmonious strains of music; pulses quickened to the tune of the fife and drum. The "9tay-at-homes" swelled with pride as they pointed out to their visitors representations of Reynoldsvllle thrift and Industry, fea tured by floats In the parade. The Imposing figure of Postmaster Burns, chief marshal of the procession, mounted on a blgh-stepper, proved that the committee made a good choice of first officer; and the P.M. started things on time and kept them moving. To mention all the attractions would take more space than can be spared in the dally edition, but a few must be noted to give a proper conception. At the bead rode Mayor McCrelght and the honorable council in carriages followed by the Volunteer fire depart ment. The old Keystone band was the first musical organisation In tbe ranks. Troop D. of the State Constabulary, was the military attraction. Among the more attractive floats of a mercantile and industrial nature were: W. H, Bell's with team of steers In harness; Headley's dog team; Henry Prlester's wagon, with beautiful uphol stered mahogany furniture; Mllliren's beauty and fashion show, with living models; American Silk Co., loom; Reynoldsvllle Brick and Tile Co., brick house on wagon. , Tbe exhibit put on by Frank's Tavern reminded tbe old residents of the days when a WInslow township farmer used to drive Into town behind a brlndle tbe Keystone band the musical organizations' in the line wrr: Sons of Veterans bund of Bmok ville aod Hickory Creature Snusa Ban dettu, organized for Old Home Week.

Breton, the flying automoblllst, bad a narrow escape from Instant death Monday afternoon when he made bis wild leap In mld-alr. To start be had the machine pulled clear to the top of the steep structure and when the rope was cut the auto shot down at lightning speed, bounded high in the air at the end but did not land squarely and In a twinkling Breton was thrown from his seat, the heavy auto careered to one side, crashed into a water plug and the two wheels on left side were knocked off and ruined. A child of Attllllo Benlgnl, tbe butcher, was hit but escaped with slight Injury. Two other people were injured in the mad stampede to get out of the way of the auto and one lady fainted. But for tbe obstruction the machine would have crashed into tbe massed orowd on tbe sidewalk and a frightful list of casual ties would have resulted. Breton himself lit on the wood plat form or) his back, but escaped with only a wrenched foot and was up looking after his machine in a moment. He Is absolutely cool In making bis thrilling descent and has bad sg many accidents In tbe last few weeks that he Is begin ning to take them as a matter of course. Before he went up he had requested the Keystone band to play, regardless what happened, and their coolness in the music when the auto crashed into the plug done much to prevent panic and consequent fatalities. Breton, speaking of his accident, said It was Impossible to assign any exact cause for tbe machine's tilting to onerslde, but be was Inclined to believe that It was all caused by some fault In tbe con struction of the Incline near tbe bottom. The rear wheel .on right side rode tbe guard rail just before his leap and caused It to swerve Had Breton been able to keep bis sent, be claims he could havH Bteered clear of Him water plug and crowd and all would have gone well. But be, alone of all per formers In his dangeroiM pursuit, rid. s free In hl auto, d"p-nde nt, on his quick nuns In balancing alone to hold bin seat. It adds danger, but the danger lends a fascination tbat would not be present if be strapped himself in the seat as others do in plmiliar feats. To-day a rope will h stretched on both sides of the structure and the crowds forced to ctay biok. Breton was in no sense responsible for tbe acci dent yesterday for he Iml repeatedly warned the bystander of their danger In crowding close; To-day the auto will be repaired. 'The shock demol ished the rear wheel, tearing the heavy spokes from the steel rim and to fix It wash-rg will have to be used at the end of tbe spoke, or a steel band put around th preseut rim. The axle was also slightly lH-ni. Breton believes it can be fixed In time in give hiarchi-d-uled performances to-day. "I have been riding in the present machine three years." said Breton, "making about 100 rides a season. But It l simply Impossible to foretell what will happen on any trip. Accidents happen sometimes without any algn able cause and the succeeding dicm.u are made with perfect oas. KIDNEY, LIVER AND BOWELS Sickness Is next to Impossible, it 70a keep the Kidneys.

That all the digestive mixtures and Bitters In the world would not do it, and that the only true way was to first put the nervous system that controls .the organs of di gestion In perfect working order so that the food might be properly handled and digested. title says: "Dr. A.

I tried everything other medicines, doctors, anything 1 was told to, but the Nerve Pills I got cured me. I feel well In every way today no weakness or dizziness, and digestion splendid. I can not recom mend them too strongly to others as I believe the medicine to be unequaled In its ability to cure such troubles.
